If you control the entry point, you can redirect via a META tag there. It sounds as if you can't guarantee that all users will come through a specific or even limited set of entry points.
The solution in the article uses customized web server error pages to redirect - not a bad idea if you can get it to work. Try customizing the error page for the 403 error itself. I take it you saw some of the tweaks/settings changes needed to make it work further down in the comments. -Brian META tag redirect page example: <html><head> <title>Remedy on the Schweb</title> <META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" content="0;URL=https://hostname/arsys/home";> </head> <body> If you are not automatically redirected, go to <a href="https://hostname/arsys/home";>/arsys/home</a><br> </body> </html> -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Heider, Stephen Sent: Monday, May 01, 2006 11:44 AM To: [email protected] Subject: OT: Redirect http to https We are about to implement SSL for Mid-Tier. I would like to have all http:// URLs entered to be redirected to https:// automatically, without forcing users to type in https://. I have searched for redirect scripts and tried a couple, but I still receive the "You are not authorized to view this page" error 403 page when going to an http:// address. I tried the 2 examples from this thread: http://blog.opsan.com/archive/2005/04/17/395.aspx. I must have missed some setting. I don't believe it is ARS-specific because I get the same error with a simple web page, for example: <html> <head> </head> <body> test </body> </html> ARS 6.3 Mid-Tier 6.3 Windows Server 2003 IIS 6 (anonymous access disabled, Integrated Windows Authentication enabled, Require Secure Channel (SSL) enabled, Allow ASP pages enabled) Thanks.
